Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Everyone can sing. Even if they sing badly that's at least their own voice, and no one is fooled into thinking they are singing when they hit play on their phone, so why think someone's an artist when they get a computer to make an image?
I'm telling you that "artist talent" is literally just when someone likes drawing enough they keep going even when they aren't at the level they want to be and they practice it. Anyone can be an artist, and anyone can be a good artist, if they put in the effort to try. Even you.
Absolutely untrue If you don't have the spark your ceiling is quite low
I have it for other arenas so I'm not making excuses, I know there are people that will never match me on those arts because they don't have it. People are different and that's okay but let's not pretend everyone can do everything because that's not really true.
If you have the ability to hold a pencil you can do art. I'm not saying everyone can do everything but art is a thing ask humans are capable of making and should be encouraged to do so with their own hands. Or feet or mouths or whatever.
